Kienholz called himself a “visual historian.” His work doesn't hang on a wall. He created experiences.

Here's my #EdwardKienholz Sunday night tweet: Kienholz didn’t make “pretty” art. He didn't have a huge audience. Maybe because his installations punched you in the face. Enter Five Car Stud. The one Kienholz you probably don't know even if you know his work.

Read books. Borrow books. Buy books. Lend books. Donate books. Annotate books. Write books. Discuss books. Debate books. Apply books. Reread books. Review books. Love books.

David Bowie’s timeless advice for every artist.

Minimalism. You know how this works. The genius is in what isn’t said. There’s no critique, no glorification. Just this dry, deadpan look at the city’s spread — The sprawl, the sameness, the weird beauty of the mundane. Makes me miss living there. #ArtistsBooks

You know how some artists haunt a city? Ed Ruscha. L.A. In 1965, he drove around photographing boring mid-century apartment buildings. 30 photos. No captions. And zero explanation. That’s the book. #EdRuscha #ConceptualArt #Photobooks

Happy Friday to everyone who accomplished absolutely nothing they planned on Monday. We ride at dawn next week. #TGIF

Proof that in Hollywood, you didn’t need NASA credentials — just a shiny suit, some optimism, and a willingness to sweat through aluminum. 🚀✨ #VintageTV #SciFiHistory

When Vollmann signed IMPERIAL: Photographs, I asked him to dedicate it to his favorite dead photographer—an idea I stole from seeing Anne Rice inscribe a book to Bram Stoker. Why not? The dead deserve dedications too. #WilliamTVollmann #Photobooks #BookCollectors

Twin Palms / Twelvetrees reminder: Jack Woody doesn’t miss. One Big Self—Deborah Luster’s tintypes of Louisiana prisoners + C.D. Wright’s text—is one of the great documentary photobooks of the 2000s. Heavy in every sense. #TwinPalms #Twelvetrees #DocumentaryPhotography

Bettie Page × Irving Klaw = underground magic. This 8×10 bondage-wrestling photo hits that mid-century sweet spot—part theater, part taboo, all Bettie. Larger Klaw enlargements carry real weight. A must for pin-up + Klaw collectors. #BettiePage #VintagePinup #IrvingKlaw

This 1980s Florida wrestling snapshot album is my childhood: pre-Vince, pre-pyro, Sunday-morning TV energy. 57 fan-shot photos, gifted to Mike Graham for “pinning Kendo Nagasaki.” Dusty, Graham, Nagasaki—DIY devotion at its best. #WrestlingHistory #prowrestling #FloridaWrestling

Yukichi Watabe’s Stakeout Diary 張り込み日記 is pure visual noir. In 1958 he shadowed Tokyo detectives hunting a killer—a cornerstone of Japanese photobooks. #Photobook #JapanesePhotography #StreetPhotography

One part history, one part heartbreak, one part saxophone. It's not a list, exactly. More like a snapshot of the stuff that’s rattling around in my head from time to time that I like to share with pals. 📚

Five Things, Right Now: — Tucson’s Día de los Muertos procession — Cameron Crowe's mom vs. the John Birch Society — Minx on Netflix — Ken Burns on the Revolution — Sonny Rollins in your living room (almost) November's blog’s up. December’s is cooking.

I didn't flip through it as much as fall in to it. A Mr. WF Adams made it. One thing's certain: no one's really doing this sort of thing anymore. Another thing? He was paying attention. #BiblioFinds #RareBookFacts
